Robots seem very new to most people. But they have a long history. The first one was made by a Greek inventor. You may have seen robots in some films. The robots in these films are stronger, faster and cleverer than people. In real life, most robots are used in factories. They are used to do many dangerous, difficult or boring jobs. Some people can’t look after themselves and robots are used to help them. For example, some people can’t see. Many of these people use a dog to help themselves move around. This dog is called a guide dog. Scientists are making a robot to help them. In the future, robot dogs might take the place of these guide dogs.
Robots are also used in American hospitals. At one hospital, a robot takes from the kitchen to the sick people’s rooms. It never loses its way because it has a map of the hospital in its computer system.

Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival. This is why it is celebrated in late fall, after the crops are in. But one of the first thanksgivings in America had nothing to do with a good harvest.
On December 4, 1619, the Pilgrims from England landed near what is now Charles City, Virginia. They knelt down and thanked God for their safe journey across the Atlantic.
The first New England Thanksgiving did celebrate a rich harvest. The Pilgrims landed at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1620. They had a difficult time and the first winter was cruel. Many of the Pilgrims died. But the next year, they had a good harvest. So Govemor Bradford declared a three-day feast. The Pilgrims invited Indian friends to join them
for their special feast. Everyone brought food. In time, other colonies (殖民地) began to celebrate a day of Thanksgiving. But it took years before there was a national Thanksgiving Day. During the Civil War, Sarah Josepha Hale persuaded Abraham Lincoln to do something about it. He proclaimed (宣布) the last Thursday of November 1863 as a day of Thanksgiving.
Today, Americans celebrate this happy harvest festival on the fourth Thursday in November. Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving Day in much the same way as their American
neighbors. But the Canadian Thanksgiving Day falls on the second
Monday in October.
26. The passage mainly tells us _____ .
A. how Thanksgiving Day came into being and the different ways it is celebrated
B. how to celebrate Thanksgiving Day
C. that Thanksgiving Day changed with the time and places
D. Why Thanksgiving Day is a harvest holiday
27. Thanksgiving Day is celebrated _____ .
A. in spring B. in summer C. in autumn D. in winter

A. people in Canada B. Governor Bradford
C. some people from England D. the American Indians
29. We can infer from the passage that New England must be____.
A. in the US B. in Great Britain C. in Canada D. on some island off the Atlantic
30. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. There's little difference between the American way and the Canadian way to celebrate Thanksgiving Day.
B. Abraham Lincoln was not the first to decide on thanksgiving celebrations.
C. Thanksgiving Day used to be a holiday to celebrate a good harvest.
D. Thanksgiving Day is celebrated to express the American and Indian people's thanks to God.
